Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is a sophisticated form of three-dimensional treatment planning and delivery. In some situations, IMRT allows more conformal radiation therapy to complex targets within the lung. As problems related to organ motion are increasingly addressed, the use of IMRT in the treatment of lung cancer, particularly in non-small cell lung cancer and mesothelioma, continues to rise.
调强放射治疗(IMRT)是一种复杂的三维治疗计划与实施形式。在某些情况下,IMRT能够对肺部复杂靶区进行更适形的放射治疗。随着与器官运动相关问题得到越来越多的解决,IMRT在肺癌治疗中的应用,尤其是在非小细胞肺癌和间皮瘤治疗中的应用持续增加。
